Wow, I wish my family would watch anything that I like with me. They always say "Hey Mike, what do you want to watch/eat/do ?" ... then anything I say , they say "Oh, let's do something else instead" . Always, ever since I was a kid. ☹️
Was watching few videos of you today, and clicked on this one without realizing it was just uploaded...Amazing again !! This NES game could put some SNES game to the shame ! What a run you did. Great job !
I remember when I was 5 years old and I finished my first game and it was Megaman 3 and now that I am 37 years old it makes me remember the wonderful things about my childhood, thank you for remembering this moment.
I don't remember how or why I got this game, but I remember learning about the high jump trick if you pressed a button on the second controller. I probably tried taping it down or something, but in the end, I wound up sitting on the floor with no shoes on, keeping my big toe on the second controller button for hours.
I played this one so much. I think it wad the only one my family could afford to get me. So many good memories and the soundtrack is better than all the others imo
Interesting boss order, and OMG YOU CAN JUST MAKE THE BEES NESTS GO AWAY WITHOUT A FIGHT AT THE BEGINNING OF HARD MAN?!?! 🤯🤯🤯 Anyways, Megaman 3 is best of series, ever so slightly edges out 2. The music f’n slaps.
I loved this one and Mega Man 2 back in the day. I don't think I played this one enough, though. Something changed with the SNES version- Mega Man X. I can't put my finger on it, but it wasn't the same.
Why not jump into the hole early when protoman shows up in Gemini man stage? It trivial to do and saves a few seconds of standing. Is there a reason or did he miss it?
Impressive play, as always. I’ve never seen anyone else use Rush Jet over the water section of Gemini Man. Is that a common thing? I always thought it was just my weird way of doing it.
In this game, when you fire a weapon and then change weapons in the weapons menu, the projectile that is fired will do the damage of the weapon you select. That only works when you have Rush equipped for some reason (you won’t be able to menu if Rush isn’t equipped and a projectile is on the screen), but in a situation where you need to do the damage of Top Spin, which I think does damage every frame, to an enemy who is easiest hit with a projectile, that’s an easy way to make that happen
I must have done some version of this trick, because the first time I fought gamma, I killed him in one shot from the top spin, and I was baffled. I thought it was the easiest end boss ever. I still don't know what exactly happened.
Here’s the thing; he’s more than just a speed-runner,… he’s more than just a hero,… & he’s more than Man”,… & yet he still doesn’t get the praising he deserves , throw this guy in the UFC or something. Bet he’d be a champ for sure, just give him an NES controller & he’s the deadliest man on the planet
Arcus, I think you could definitely make gains on your PB by changing your boss order. I.E.= Hard, top, shadow, gemini, needle, snake, spark, magnet. Or, magnet, hard, top, shadow, gemini, needle, snake, spark. just a thought
Your name wasn't Charlie or ever was Charlie at any point was it? If so.. do you still have that drawing I wanted many years ago? ✌️👍. You remember me don't you? We had joined the Army, I wasn't listed for long before you showed up, did I inspire you? 🥴
This game has always had an unfinished unclear story to it. It plays nothing like first two MM games. The sound effects seem muffled. This whole game has an unfinished look and slow feel to it.
YEAH! Mega Man 3. You are the GOAT, Arcus. My entire family thanks you for the RUclips upload.
You watch speedruns with your family?
@@Platinum-_- Yeah. Mainly Arcus. Sometimes Jaycee and a few others.
@@Nerbly can y'all adopt me please? LMAO

This is better than every single 16 bit MegaMan game
Gemini Man has such a slappin' theme I can still remember EXACTLY how it goes decades after I played this. lol
I remember when I was 5 years old and I finished my first game and it was Megaman 3 and now that I am 37 years old it makes me remember the wonderful things about my childhood, thank you for remembering this moment.
Love your speed runs.
My first MM game i ever played. Loved it.
A pleasure to watch you play my friend. A humble master. Great video! 😼✌️
Thanks for doing another super fun speed run, and congrats on the PB. 👏👏
Love the speedruns. But oh boy can't wait for the garden videos!
I remember I made my Pizza shop just like Wily's fortress. No surviving customers complained. :)
Ohhh yes, this is my favorite NES Megaman of all! Instawatch and +1 like
Nice PB. Looking forward to seeing how you improve!

Love the new haircut, Arcus!! Looking very sharp.
Adam Sandler with a mustache and hat
Great run here good stuff Mr. Arcus
If you ever shave………I’ll need to notify the Smithsonian.
now that is an unusual route
You the man Arcus. I could watch and listen to these classics for eternity.
I feel like I’ve been waiting forever for you to run this.
This is the best game ever made by human race
Happy New Year Arcus
The humming makes this video.
I can't get enough of Spark Man's theme.
Never change, Arcus.
mega man 3 has the dopest vibes!!!
THE DOPEST MAN LOL SO WASTED BRB BEER SO WASTED
Dude might have life figured out....one smash smash smash at a time.
aaaand clunk!
That was a good Clunk.
Making my childhood nightmares look more like a dream, as usual.
Love the videos Arcus keep em coming you are a master. Mega Man 2 & 3 were my favorite. I found 3 to be way harder.
That was indeed, a good damage transfer
I played this one so much. I think it wad the only one my family could afford to get me. So many good memories and the soundtrack is better than all the others imo
Agreed
Rush Jet is the Metal Blade of MM3. They both help to get through many levels quickly.
Good point!
My favorite Mega Man growing up.🔥
I’m humming right along with you. Great job!
Even Arcus can’t help but hum the music to Magnet Man; possibly the greatest stage music in all of the franchise, which is saying a lot.
Radical! Those Wily boss strays were nice.
Hello Arcus and all
I've never thought of going to needle man first🤔.. interesting.
Interesting boss order, and OMG YOU CAN JUST MAKE THE BEES NESTS GO AWAY WITHOUT A FIGHT AT THE BEGINNING OF HARD MAN?!?! 🤯🤯🤯
Anyways, Megaman 3 is best of series, ever so slightly edges out 2. The music f’n slaps.
Yeah, Nintendo power taught me about the disappearing bee trick 😂
I enjoy his speed runs the most of anyone .
Mu first megaman, lot of memories, genial, saludos arcus
This was an exciting run. Glods galore!
I loved this one and Mega Man 2 back in the day. I don't think I played this one enough, though. Something changed with the SNES version- Mega Man X. I can't put my finger on it, but it wasn't the same.
I speedrun watching Arcus's speedruns
My all time fav MegaMan song happened to e the one playing when you were asked. Wily 2-3, MegaMan 3.
Great return!
I uswd to olay thos when it first came out. Brings back good memories. GG
Important question. Is that a hessian wall weave behind Arcus, like in the Golgafrinchan Ark Fleet Ship?
First time I've seen a highly skilled player use an e-tank.
One of my favorite games ever
GGs
Needle Man opener? Interesting. Lot of valid openers for this MM game.
Way to go, cowboy! 👍
I have never seen Mega Man 3
Aaaand... Clonk!!
Well done. Have you run the Megaman X series?
Never seen that damage swap with top spin, wtffff
Mega CLUNK😊
Awesome
Why not jump into the hole early when protoman shows up in Gemini man stage? It trivial to do and saves a few seconds of standing. Is there a reason or did he miss it?
Do you ever do podcast appearances?
I love this one more than mega man 2 personally, only because this was the first mega man I ever played and have fonder memories.
That's a fair assessment, nostalgia always wins out but I respectfully disagree 😊
Impressive play, as always. I’ve never seen anyone else use Rush Jet over the water section of Gemini Man. Is that a common thing? I always thought it was just my weird way of doing it.
I thought everyone did that. Rush marine has no real use, sadly, other than pure novelty or self imposed challenge.
What is Jo(u)st in relation to getting snarled up by enemy attacks? I get all the Arcusisms except this one!
Explain this topspin trick used against gamma and with the megaman clones please☺️
In this game, when you fire a weapon and then change weapons in the weapons menu, the projectile that is fired will do the damage of the weapon you select.
That only works when you have Rush equipped for some reason (you won’t be able to menu if Rush isn’t equipped and a projectile is on the screen), but in a situation where you need to do the damage of Top Spin, which I think does damage every frame, to an enemy who is easiest hit with a projectile, that’s an easy way to make that happen

@@norbertovalle7928 couldn't have said it any better. Arcus is unreal.
Unreal athleticism
Thank you!
Thanks, superduty!
I miss it when the hat was on ET.
Omg yessssssss Megaman!
Giddy up! 🐈
Why needleman first? Isn't it topman, shadow man 1 and 2?
Mega Man 3 > Mega Man 2
This game was so hard
Arcus, I think you could definitely make gains on your PB by changing your boss order. I.E.= Hard, top, shadow, gemini, needle, snake, spark, magnet. Or, magnet, hard, top, shadow, gemini, needle, snake, spark. just a thought
Gemini man used to fk me up everytime. I hate that level so much! 😂
good clunk
Are you going to have a slot in GDQ?
Ooooh man, oh jeeze, fastatcc better start grinding hard before we see the burrito man in another summoning salt transition.
🕶️🐹🔪. .
GG
Hahahaha arcus is insanely good battletoads which is one of the hardest game ever
Your name wasn't Charlie or ever was Charlie at any point was it? If so.. do you still have that drawing I wanted many years ago? ✌️👍. You remember me don't you? We had joined the Army, I wasn't listed for long before you showed up, did I inspire you? 🥴
why is... top man... in the green house....... i guess i need to go consult the archives!
That Mustache has got to go
Aw3some
Hot take, MegaMan was so much better before the charge shot. It kills the pacing, balance, and sound design. This, and 2 are the best entries.
If you ever met Arcus, in real life, your first thought is NOT a famous NES speedrunning RUclipsr..
I'm thinking alpaca farmer... Yep.
Why doesn't he ever respond to comments?
Funny how 2 and 3 where sooooooooooo much bettter than all the others . I think 3 is the best
Top 5 NES game. Not for beginners.
Hi how are u
🙄
Mega man 2 soundtrack is way better. I put it on my phone and walking around
Mega Man 2 ost is the king but 3 has some real gems as well!
Incorrect. Megaman 3 has the better soundtrack, and is also the superior game. Megaman 2 is right where it belongs…number 2.
The objectively incorrect opinion which you are not permitted to have.
Disagree. Love the tracks here for Snake Man, Magnet Man, and Spark Man
I vote 2
How about play Hi no Tori? ruclips.net/video/4usfBOmzlBE/видео.html
This game has always had an unfinished unclear story to it. It plays nothing like first two MM games. The sound effects seem muffled. This whole game has an unfinished look and slow feel to it.
This game is so easy, nothing like MM2 which is and always will be the best. Fight the elementary school kid in me if you disagree LOL😂
